And then they wonder why American workers can't be price competitive overseas labor. They get hosed on everything from medicine to housing to books to software, and then it's a big shock they can't compete with overseas cheap labor.

Not only that, it's better version of the Software with all the Bloatware removed too.

where the hell did you hear that!? i dont think MS is going to take the time and effort to make a syria edition of windows xp with bloatware removed.

besides, the whole of every piece of MS crapware IS bloatware.

I posted many articles of how Microsoft stripped out the bloatware for the Foreign Countries. They were "forced" to by many aspects including the fact that since they are "developing" Countries and still behind in hardware (running Pentium 100's with 1 Gig Hard drives) and don't even have the room to hold the bloatware to begin with.

Things like this also helped these Countries go to a Linux base.

Plus internet retailers probably want those machines (HTML standards allow you to grab OS/browser info) specifically filtered so their high dollar ads are wasted on them.
